Naidu started this war with flexis

Tadepalli, Feb 2: Andhra Pradesh Legislative Council Opposition Leader Botsa Satyanarayana criticised that TDP encouraging attacks on YSRCP leaders’ houses with active police support, and said the state’s reputation for civility and respect for law is being damaged. 

Speaking at the YSRCP central office in Tadepalli, he stated that instead of maintaining neutrality, sections of the police were siding with the ruling party and failing in their duty. He said the DGP’s role is to uphold the law, not serve any political leader, and urged officials to protect the credibility of institutions. 

Referring to the tirumala laddu controversy, he questioned why the TTD EO was transferred if the SIT and related reports were not credible, and the government diverting issues for political gain. Botsa said Ambati Rambabu had already clarified and withdrawn his remarks, yet the issue was deliberately escalated. He criticised BJP and Jana Sena allies in the coalition for their silence, saying wrong must be called out as wrong. Stating that YSRCP would not be frightened by “empty threats,” he announced that the party would soon unveil its course of action after consulting party president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and would escalate the matter to the national level. He denied allegations that YSRCP provoked violence, asserting that the party neither incited attacks nor spread misinformation, and said those who commit wrong in the name of faith or politics will be answerable. Former ministers Gudivada Amarnath, Chelluboyina Venu Gopala Krishna, Karumuri Venkata Nageswara Rao, MLC Thota Trimurthulu, and former MLA Karanam Dharmasri were present at the briefing.
